What brand of whole wheat tortillas are pictured with the recipe please?
Hi Mister Bee,
We use Ezekiel Sprouted Whole Grain Tortillas. Check out more of our WFPB brand picks here: https://www.forksoverknives.com/wellness/oil-free-vegan-grocery-list/
Thank you,
Courtney, editor, Forks Over Knives
These look and sound so good.
Suggestion for a replacement for mango? Allergic to it
Peaches would also be great
YUM!
I made these for lunch yesterday and was delighted with the flavor. The only change I made was to use a food processor to combine the first 6 ingredients and perhaps a little heavy-handed when measuring the spices. Can’t wait to have another one today!!!
Omgosh. This is so delicious. I prepared the recipe as directed and but the wraps on my panini press to serve crunchy and warm.
YUM!! So good, I made it again the next day. Gracias Darshana for this fresh combo. I adjust all recipes in general…this one is a keeper.
You go Julie! Who cares what it’s called–it’s the taste that counts.
Let’s all get over such trivial arguing PLEASE.
Haven’t tried the recipe yet, but it looks delicious.
I made this great combo but instead of making it a wrap I put It over rice. To make it even easier I used Trader Joe’s organic frozen rice. Delicious GF meal.
Delicious. Large amount for an 8inch wrap. I’ll try all the ingredients (not mashing black beans) on top of spinach just as a salad. Definitely making again
Tasty! Used food processor to make a bean paste. Definitely needs a little zhuzh w/ added spices and heat. Subbed coriander for cilantro.
This was EXCELLENT!
I did not use a tortilla though, used spring roll wrappers instead.
So tasty, no cooking :=)
Where do you find a great tasting, no oil, whole wheat tortilla??
(Please don’t suggest Ezekiel, those are awful!)
Trader Joes
I really like using the “Carb Balance” Mission Brand tortillas. They are soft and smooth (not gritty like some whole grain products), and neutral tasting. Not sure if they meet FOK guidelines, but they are full of fiber. (Ok, just checked, theres 8 g of fat, sorry all!)
good
